Diagnosis
A patient may be diagnosed with a conjugate gaze palsy by a physician performing a number of tests to examine the patent's eye movement abilities. In most cases, the gaze palsy can simply be seen by inability to move both eyes in one direction. However, sometimes a patient exhibits an abduction nystagmus in both eyes, indicating evidence of a conjugate gaze palsy. A nystagmus is a back and forth "jerk" of the eye when attempting to hold a gaze in one direction.
